The Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford University invites applications for a tenure track faculty position at the Assistant or untenured Associate Professor level.

The Physics Department at the University of California, Berkeley is conducting an open search to fill a tenure-track faculty position for an Assistant Professor in Particle Theory with an expected start date of July 1, 2021. Applications are welcomed from researchers in core areas of particle theory (formal theory and phenomenology), and also in emerging areas of particle theory, such as connections to astrophysics, cosmology, nuclear physics, and new instrumentations.

Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) in La Jolla, California, invites applications for one or more Institution-wide Postdoctoral positions in any of the major areas of research conducted at Scripps. Scripps Institution of Oceanography is one of the oldest, largest, and most important centers for marine science research in the world. Research at Scripps encompasses physical, chemical, biological, geological, and geophysical studies of the oceans, earth, and atmosphere.

We invite applications from individuals working at the frontiers of Management Science and Engineering, broadly defined, including candidates from engineering, mathematical, data and computational sciences, as well as those from the medical, physical, behavioral and social sciences.

Division of Math & Physical Sciences
The Physics Department at the University of California, Berkeley is conducting an open search to fill a tenure-track faculty position for an Assistant Professor in Soft Condensed Matter with an expected start date of July 1, 2021. This position is open to all sub-fields of soft condensed matter, broadly defined, including but not limited to biological soft condensed matter physics, nonbiological soft condensed matter physics, and related areas of nonlinear physics.

As of September 8, 2020, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will be accepting applications for the 2021 Ford Foundation Fellowship Programs. Eligibility and online application information are available on the Ford Foundation Fellowship Programs website.

The Stanford Science Fellows program invites applications from outstanding graduating doctoral students and early career postdoctoral scholars with a clear intellectual drive to advance foundational research in the natural sciences and a strong commitment to engage collaboratively with a diverse community of scholars. Stanford Science Fellows are an interdisciplinary community of exceptional postdoctoral scholars from around the globe whose work is driven by a sense of wonder about the natural world.

Open Date: June 1, 2020
Close Date: August 15, 2020

We Are:

Fermilab is America's premier laboratory for particle physics and accelerator research, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy. We support discovery science experiments in Illinois and South Dakota and at locations around the world, including Canada, mountaintops in Arizona and Chile, and the South Pole.

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine administers postdoctoral and senior research awards at participating federal laboratories and affiliated institutions at locations throughout the U.S and abroad.

We are actively seeking highly qualified candidates including recent doctoral recipients and senior researchers.

The Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences (EAPS), Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) invites applications from emerging nations for its Molina Postdoctoral Fellowship Program. The fellowship provides two years of support for exceptional early-career scientists who will pursue studies in environmental sciences. Molina Fellows will then return to their home countries better able to address complex environmental concerns.
